Checked my 4 colonies today, all well, some scoffing fondant like mad, others ignoring it and actually putting ON weight.
A varroa count showed very low numbers <1 too. What was very obvious in the debris were lots of wax scales where there were none present in January.
Does this mean - diy repairs, comb building, new young bees, something else, or all/none of the above
 
No, proper scales of clear wax nice and shiny - Mike
